Hey guys, I have an awesome neighbor who gave me and my brother a bunch of old models from the 50's to 80's. Most are from an old models company called "Aurora". The company closed down and no longer produces these any more, they are pretty cool a bunch of planes, ships, and cars. There's one Tank too!
Here they are, also I have some battleships and subs
Nice model T here
Here's my Panther Tank(I don't have any decals they are too old to use)
UPDATED
added weathering on fuselage, 2 decals work
My Messerschmitt Bf 109, no decalsHere's the Albatross, WW1 Biplane
And here's my bro's Zero, I have no idea how his decals worked, mine disinigrated

So I hope this got some people into modeling it's really fucking cool, especially how you can paint what ever the fuck you want on it.

The next 2 I will be painting and building are the Sopwith Camel
And the Supermarine Spitfire

Tell me what paint scheme I should use for them, because I can't decide

My grandpa gave me some of these years ago, and I bought one at one point. He gave me a German Half Track, a USS Forrestal Aircraft Carrier, and a Shelby Series 1 car. I bought a '66 Malibu SS. I have all the paint, tools, and stuff but I never put one of these together. Maybe that can be a little project later this year or next year.

The only thing I used to build was model cars and boats. I trashed them a long time ago, then I went though the phase of building rockets (the ones you can launch) I think I lost at least 5 of them. I think 3 are orbiting the planet at the moment, one of them simply made it a few feet in the air and blew up and the other one was descending back to the ground and before I could get to it some asshole stole it and ran off with it.

My history teacher from high school (this one), who was turned into an English teacher because he taught out of the norm and also taught all the bad and morbid stuff they tend not to talk about in history, used to have his room filled with flags and model planes hanging everywhere and little battle reenactments with toy soldiers and model tanks and vehicles, and he had hanging florescent lights that he had battleships and submarine models on...

When I was like 8, my parents thought I was playing too many video games, so they bought me a whole bunch of WW2 model trucks, tanks and planes to assemble, it was fun when Dad and I were making them but it just made me want to play WW2 games.

Also I didn't do the H-19 yet I just put a wash on the tank and Messerschmitt

It's from James May's toy stories. But it was epic. He got a bunch of school kids to put it together, trying to ignite the near dead love of modelling.
It's made from fiber glass. The company that May got to make them with were skeptical that it was capable of being done. But they managed sort of. It was a bit flimsy in places. may got a model done of himself that sits in the cockpit and it's now in an air museum in Britain.

Alright I started assembling the H-19, and I need you guys to decide what color scheme it should be. I'm not to fond of the plain silver.
I like this marine version from the Korean War,
but it's a different version of the h-19,
